Many adults believe they are unable to hula-hoop. If your most recent attempts have been in the aisle at the local box store, it would be impressive if you could! Most are surprised at how easy it actually is when they try using an adult sized hoop. Join the fun new fitness trend that feels more like recess than cardio. Rabbit Wheel Studio makes adult size beginner, intermediate and dance hoops. Please email for assistance determining the best size/style hoop for your needs.

***Shipping of hoops is unavailable at this time, but a small selection of hoops is available for purchase in person at http://www.silksnpole.com/. Sorry for any inconvenience.***

***Each piece is individually hammered one character at a time and everything is freehand. Because of this, no two pieces will be exactly alike and you should expect variations in the spacing, depth of the designs and placement. This is not to be considered a defect but to a part of the beauty and charm of a hand made piece.***

From time to time, there will be original painted mandalas available here on this website for purchase. All paintings are also available as prints or on products (pillows, phone cases, clothing, office supplies, etc.) that feature the images at www.fineartamerica.com and/or www.redbubble.com.

About RWS

Rabbit Wheel Studio is the collection of original works and pieces created by Amber Bradshaw. What began as the desire to create her own dance hoop after taking a hula-hooping fitness class, soon turned into several requests to make more hoops for classmates and friends. The joy of hooping and making hoops as a hobby eventually became a job leading the hoop class! It was inside those hoops that Amber began to feel the creative flow that inspired her to step outside her comfort zone and take a mandala painting class taught by a childhood friend. That afternoon, painting and reminiscing with her friend, the ember of creativity that began with a hoop, ignited like a wildfire and has consumed Amber's brain with ideas, patterns, designs and colors. She expresses her creativity across many mediums, including, but not limited to; mandala paintings, painted coasters, beaded bracelets, necklaces, hand-stamped metal jewelry and keepsakes and of course, hula-hoops. Amber says, "I really just enjoy making things that make other people happy!"

The story behind the name Rabbit Wheel Studio... "As many of my friends and family know, I've collected rabbits for many years so that part of the name was kind of a no-brainer. The wheel reference is two-fold. As I began looking at my work as a whole, everything had a similar circular theme; hoops, mandalas, bracelets, necklaces. Round and round...like the ideas that spin through my brain...like a wheel! And so, as a little business began to grow from these things I created, Rabbit Wheel Studio was born."

Amber currently resides in Kansas City, Missouri and is the proud mother of a teenage daughter and dog mom to three fur babies.
